LA/TM-049 Holtankollen

Another trip to Holtankollen. I would say the snow is almost a meter deep some places and I struggled a lot on my way up. I used 50 minutes today and I normally use 10 - 12 minutes! I started at 80m and worked Hans-Petter (LA6GOA). At 40m I worked 5 stations before my first battery pack went flat. I changed to the other pack and managed 5 more contacts before that one died as well. I normally bring a chemical hand warmer to warm the batteries but I had left it at home today. I also worked Hans-Petter (LA6GOA/P) and Kjell (LA1KHA/M) on 2m before heading home.

Sorry about my sudden qrt!

Thanks to the chasers and to Mike (GW0DSP) for spotting.
